About
MA Children's TV Production Graduate from University of Salford, Edinburgh Network Delegate 2017 and BA Honours Drama Graduate.
A multifaceted Researcher who has worked across multiple genres for established channels like BBC, Channel 4 and ITV. I relish being on location, have strong interpersonal and casting skills, particularly as I love speaking and working with contributors from young children to studio talent. I’ve a solid reputation for having effective organisational and time management skills but also my innate enthusiasm and curiosity to learn means I’ll always be on hand to help and strive to get the best out of a team. I’m also able to film and edit and would describe myself as a quick learner. My drive is to work across documentaries and children’s TV to create powerful storytelling, particularly dealing with sensitive and taboo subjects, that enables to broaden an audience’s perception. In the future I would also love to develop my own ideas and concepts.
